Double Integrals · Superchallenge problem

Numbers xx and yy are chosen independently and uniformly at random from (0,1)(0, 1). Find the probability that ⌊1x⌋=⌊1y⌋\left\lfloor \dfrac{1}{x} \right\rfloor = \left\lfloor \dfrac{1}{y} \right\rfloor. You may use ∑n=1∞1n2=π26\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty \dfrac{1}{n^2} = \dfrac{\pi^2}{6}. Give an exact answer.
